Why Take the 5-Day TapRooT® Advanced Root Cause Analysis Team Leader Training?
5-Day TapRooT® Advanced Root Cause Analysis
Team Leader Training
The 5-Day TapRooT® Advanced Root Cause Analysis Team Leader Training is our premier course for those that want to find the root causes of accidents, incidents, quality problems, equipment failures, or any other serious problem that management wants to stop with effective corrective actions.
When I ask our instructors:
“Which course is the best for the students to learn
how to find the root causes of problems?”
There is no doubt – they will reply…
“The 5-Day TapRooT® Training”
Why is this? Because:
- It covers both the simple and complete TapRooT® investigation processes (shown above).
- It covers the essential and optional TapRooT® Tools. This includes SnapCharT®, The Root Cause Tree®, the Causal Factor Worksheets, Equifactor®, CHAP, Change Analysis, SMARTER, and the Corrective Action Helper® Guide.
- It provides key tips for interviewing and information collection.
- It provides advanced learning about troubleshooting human performance problems.
- It teaches how to use TapRooT® both reactively and proactively.
- It includes a major example every day to reinforce the tools and practices learned.
- It provides extensive practice using the TapRooT® Software to complete an investigation.
- It links everything together to demonstrate how to use TapRooT® in a major investigation or a minor precursor event.
That’s why the course takes 5-days!
